Hello,

This is what I've tried to work -current on clamshell iBook G3 since
last month.
I hope this report will help somebody.

Apple iBook 466MHz Special Edition Key Lime (FireWire) (M8245LL/A)


I made some changes on iBook.
First, I put more RAM on it.
It had 64MB on board and 128MB was added.
Using "firefox" web browser, it took so long time to start.
So, I put 512MB RAM instead of 128MB, and I felt better than before.

Second, using the kernel with genfb. 
Using genfb* instead of ofb* made iBook more useful.
Faster console and big fonts made me feel good.
I could exit X and go back to console with option + control + delete
key combination. Using ofb*, "DefaultDepth 8" had to be specified to
go back to console. But using genfb*, "DefaultDepth" didn't matter.

To use genfb*, I made the kernel config file comment out two lines,
--------------------------------------------------------------------
ofb*   at pci? dev ? function ?  # Generic Open Firmware Framebuffer
machfb*      at pci? function ?    # ATI Mach 64, Rage, Rage Pro
--------------------------------------------------------------------

and added this line,
--------------------------------------------------------------------
genfb* at pci? 
--------------------------------------------------------------------

and built the kernel.
I think genfb is fine.

I am happy to use iBook running NetBSD.
Finally, I would like to thank Michael and David to help me.
